Q&A - 01 🌸

Question:

🌸 For people with reading anxiety: will the boys have a happy ending?

That's what we want to find out! Looking at the core of the story, I think it all boils down to "is it even possible for them to have a happy ending?"

As it stands right now they shouldn't even be able to be here - Robin used to be a place and is now in a human body separated from his land, and Noah shouldn't be able to get reincarnated because he use...

scene 40 - wip πŸ’•

ah................ blushes

I'm almost done with sketches and i started to line some panels, too. this scene is so fun honestly, because i get to draw tons of different expressions for everyone! I'm using the friend scenes to go all out with chibis, too. I love to draw cheebs (and give them little exaggerated t-rex hands and stuff), but I rarely get to draw them in the comic itself because most of the time it wouldn't fit the mood.  but currently i can~ 

can't wait to sho...

scene 40 - wips

🦌 i'm working on scene 40 (ahh 40 scenes!! so many) now, and as always, the comic scene will be my main focus for this month! I'm halfway done with sketches! 

it's so nice to draw Noah being a happy little bug for a change ; _; and we're about to enter the Big Pining (tm) 

other than this, i will continue with some of my unfinished sketches and requests, and I'm also still rewriting and fixing the plot! I've seen some huge progress with writing the past weeks 🌻

Happy Halloween!! πŸ¦‡πŸŽƒ (+ patreon Q&A)

Happy Halloween!! πŸ‘» aren't they scary.....

i wanted to draw a little something even though i didn't plan anything for Halloween, but drawing spooky stuff is always fun! πŸŽƒ

in October my plan was to ease into it again after the long hiatus, but for the upcoming month I hope I can improve the rewards a little! 

even though I'm working on comic pages, I have to keep most of the panels to myself because of content spoilers. and even though I am very active in Disc...

yours πŸ’™

hello, i bring you a doodle of them snuggling while Noah sits on Robin's lap πŸ’• this was a warm-up from some days ago and today i polished the sketch a little so i can share it with you! I love to draw them like this, just them being close and being in their own small bubble

I'm glad I adopted warm-ups into my progress again ;; before I work on pages I allow myself like half an hour of doodling, just to loosen up my hand and to practice, as well as sketching the rest of the requests s...

scene 38 wip + HIATUS (please read!)

drawing the backgrounds was really fun! it's one of my favorite parts of the whole process, it gives everything depth and detail and life. i had to do a lot of different ones for this scene and i could include more of Noah's journal, too. 

i will post scene 38 as well as the public update tomorrow / day after tomorrow πŸ’œ

and after this i will go on hiatus. you probably saw this coming and i did, too, to be honest.

my workflow for lining panels is usually like -> line easy and fun panels so t...

hello..... let me just throw spice at you out of nowhere πŸ’• 

i'm still a bit blocked and working on actual panels is (big sigh). so i just sketched around instead and maybe drawing fun things like this without having any goals (except for maybe practice expressions) is the way to go right now. this was definitely almost too much fun hahah because it's the first nsfw stuff i did this year, i really missed it!! πŸ₯€ hope you enjoy, too

Noah's hair is getting fluffier and fluffier and i'm very happy with this development πŸ¦ŒπŸ’™ he has the softest hair and honestly it needs to be ruffled by someone very soon.

btw if you follow me on IG or twitter you might have already seen that i struggled (and still struggle a bit) with drawing. i think it's a combination of humid weather + artblock where i can't concentrate and when i draw i'm ??? not sure what i'm even doing, it's like i have forgotten how to draw. <...

Noah's spirit form - drafts

a while ago someone asked me if it would be okay if they get Noah's spirit form tattooed, and of course i'm super touched whenever someone decides to go for such a commitment with my designs and babies ; _; my heart.....
